I never flew a C421, flew in one, but that's it. Nice, stable, roomy in back. I did manage a couple of hours in a B200, very roomy in the right seat.

Joeaksa is right about the GTSIOs. Our 421 was very reliable but only because only two or three people flew it after the factory remans. I'd always cringe when I'd hear a 421 go by with the gearboxes clacking away at low idle
I could be wrong, but I don't think any of the C340's came with geared engines, even the RAM conversions didn't go to those, am I right?
